Chapter 367: It’s Only Right to Do What You’re Paid to Do
Chu Luo walked to the manufacturing room where she and Neeson had gone before. The door was closed.
She raised her hand and pushed open the door. Indeed, she saw Neeson sitting alone, looking at something, as if he was waiting for her.
Neeson heard the door open and turned around.
He stared at her with those emotionless eyes and stated a fact. “Chu, I waited for you all afternoon last Friday. You broke your promise.”
Chu Luo walked into the room and closed the door. She looked at him with a straight face for a while. Then, without saying anything, she attacked him.
Neeson leaned back and subconsciously dodged her first attack. Then, he sat there and stopped moving.
Chu Luo slapped him again.
Bam!
“Cough, cough, cough…”
Looking at Neeson, who had slammed into the wall and was coughing violently, Chu Luo walked up to him and asked coldly, “Did you send those robots over last night?”
Neeson looked at her and a trace of blood streaked across his lips. “Cough, cough… Would you believe me if I say it wasn’t me?”
“No.”
“Yes.”
Neeson replied curtly, “It’s only right to do things after getting paid.”
Chu Luo snorted. “Do you really think I won’t do anything to you now?”
Neeson looked at her with those proud eyes that had a hot glint in them and stopped talking.
Chu Luo frowned and gathered internal energy in her hand.
Just as she was about to slap him again, Neeson spoke.
“Do you know who paid to rent my robots this time?” As he spoke, he wiped the blood from the corners of his lips and continued, “I heard that their surname is Duanmu.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she retracted her internal energy and frowned even more.
Neeson propped himself up against the wall and said, “The higher-ups in your country are really interesting. Other than the Duanmu family, there’s also the Qin family. They seem to be playing with each other on purpose, but… to my surprise, you and that man went there too.”
At this point, he walked towards the stool at the side and sat down before continuing, “You and that man are really ruthless. You actually destroyed all the robots I rented out… Oh, no, two more robots were taken away by you after their program was turned off.”
Chu Luo turned to look at Neeson. She wasn’t surprised that he knew everything. After all, the robots were his. There had to be a surveillance program inside.
“Do you know why my robots could still sense that you turned that man into me?”
Chu Luo stared at him.
But Neeson gave her an annoying smile. “If you want to know, follow me and keep learning.”
Chu Luo frowned and looked at him, thinking about how to deal with this person to vent her anger.
Moreover, she was about to enter reclusive training. She had to control this person.
At the thought of this, she suddenly had a good idea.
“Are you willing to do anything for money?”
“Yeah.”
Neeson’s answer was straightforward.
“Alright, I want a batch of robots in half a month. Help me make them.”
“You don’t have any materials.”
“Who says so?”
Chu Luo snorted and took out her phone to call Li Yan.
The other party picked up the call quickly.
Li Yan: “Luoluo.”
Chu Luo said, “Yan, I want Neeson to make me a batch of robots in half a month. Do you have the materials?”
Li Yan: “Yes. Tell him that my men will pick him up at Imperial University tonight.”
Chu Luo: “If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up.”
With that, she hung up and looked at Neeson. “Yan said that he’ll send someone to pick you up at night. You just have to follow him.”
A dark glint flashed across Neeson’s eyes as he lowered his eyes. “Okay.”
For the next half of the day, Chu Luo followed Neeson to study in the production room.
Chu Luo had already learned nearly everything about robot production. Today, she learned the various materials and functions that robots needed.
When the two of them talked about the materials, Chu Luo was especially serious and asked many questions in a row.
“What elements are on the robot material you created? What material is used to create the invisibility function?”
Even though Neeson knew that Chu Luo wanted to crack the invisibility function on his robots, he didn’t hide it.
“I can tell you what material is used to create the invisibility function, but you won’t be able to crack it.”
“Ha! How would we know if we don’t try?”
“I’ve said before that the invisibility function is a technology provided by another person. I only know that materials like his don’t exist on land. Moreover, there are many complicated functions used in the technology extraction.”
Chu Luo looked at Neeson and suddenly asked, “Are there merfolk in your organization?”
Neeson looked back at her and answered softly, “Other than things, you’re the only person I remember in this world.”
Chu Luo frowned but didn’t ask further.
At five in the afternoon, Chu Luo and Neeson walked out of the technology building.
At this moment, there weren’t many students in the technology building.
When the two of them walked out, they immediately saw Nangong Yi standing there in white casual clothes.
Beside Nangong Yi stood a few girls who were talking to him excitedly.
Nangong Yi had a light and pleasant smile on his face, but it wasn’t difficult to tell that he maintained a perfect distance from them.
When Nangong Yi saw Chu Luo and Neeson walk out, he said to the girls, “Juniors, sorry, the person I was waiting for is out. You guys can go and eat.”
“Hehe, which beauty is the president waiting for?”
The girls giggled and turned around. When they saw that it was Chu Luo, they stopped laughing. After greeting Chu Luo, they left tactfully.
Nangong Yi smiled and said, “Junior Sister is indeed imposing. These girls weren’t willing to leave even after I talked for so long. They left as soon as you came out.”
After saying that, he turned to look at Neeson.
Chu Luo glanced at him before shifting her gaze to his right arm, which was already bandaged.
Nangong Yi looked at Neeson and finally retracted the smile on his face. He said to Chu Luo, “Junior, since you’re with Teacher Neeson, help me ask how I offended him that he beat me up like this?”
Chu Luo looked at Neeson.
Neeson didn’t even look at Nangong Yi. He said to Chu Luo, “I’ll leave first.”
With that, he strode away.
After Neeson had walked out of her sight, Chu Luo turned to Nangong Yi, who had a slightly ugly expression, with a hint of sympathy in her eyes.
“Did you provoke this person in some way?”
She had already seen how strange Neeson’s temper was.
Nangong Yi shook his head. “No. I’ve never seen him before.”
After saying that, he looked stifled. “This person is a special hire by the school and there are even a few invisible robots beside him. Junior, what do you think the chances of success are if I find someone to beat him up?”
Chu Luo looked at him with bright eyes. “You can try.”
Nangong Yi: “Forget it. It’s never too late to take revenge.”
After saying that, he asked Chu Luo, “Are you free tonight?”
“Why are you asking?”
“I’ll treat you to a meal.” Nangong Yi gave her a relaxed smile. “Previously, many ministers said that I’m a miser. In order to refute the rumors, I’ll treat you and all the ministers to a meal tonight.”
Chu Luo wasn’t interested in eating at all.
As if he had guessed her thoughts, Nangong Yi continued, “Junior, you’re going to take ten days off. Shouldn’t you be the one to tell them about this matter? Don’t forget that you’re going to be a minister in the future. The Student Union is a team. Even if you want to enslave them, you have to make them willingly become slaves.”
Chu Luo thought for a while and felt that he made sense. She asked, “Where are we going to eat?”
“I know a private restaurant that has a great ambience. Moreover, it’s not far from Imperial University. Why don’t we go there to eat?”
“Sure.”
Nangong Yi suddenly smiled and narrowed his eyes. “Then let’s go. Everyone is waiting for you.”
Chu Luo glanced at him.
Nangong Yi pretended not to see it and pointed at the bike beside him. “I can’t ride a bike. I can only trouble you to ride a bike. Lend me your skateboard.”
Chu Luo gestured to Roundy. “Roundy, give him the skateboard.”
Roundy placed the skateboard beside Nangong Yi’s feet.
Chu Luo told him about the functions of this skateboard before walking towards the place where the bikes were parked.
When she pushed the bike out, Nangong Yi had already mastered the technique of stepping on the skateboard.
The two of them rode towards the school gate.
As lessons had just ended and many students were headed to eat, there were many people on the school path. Everyone was a little excited to see Chu Luo and Nangong Yi coming over together.
“I didn’t expect Chu Luo to have such a good relationship with the president. I thought that since they’re competing with each other, they’ll find each other an eyesore.”
“You’re thinking too much. With the goddess’s temper, she doesn’t take anyone seriously.”
“Haha, Speaking of which, I suddenly remembered about the school belle contest previously. The other contestants tried their best to canvass for votes, but the goddess didn’t take it to heart at all.”
“That’s right. Even so, the goddess still became the school belle.”
“It’s impossible not to be the school belle with her looks.”
“That’s right. I wonder how the other school belles, especially the school belle who was chosen to be a school belle in high school, feel?”
“Hehe. What is there to talk about? She treated Chu Luo as a competitor, but Chu Luo didn’t give two hoots about this contest at all. She must feel particularly sour.”
“Hahaha… Maybe that school belle is traumatized.”
